W3C: RDFa 1.0 is Official

RDFa became an official World Wide Web Consortium Recommendation today. This means that it has undergone an intense amount of design, feedback, development and scrutiny to become a recognized world-wide standard for the expression of web semantics. Manu Sporny, Digital Bazaar’s Founder, has been directly involved with the RDFa Task Force and the standardization work involved with this new Web technology.

The Web is based on a core dedication to standards. It is individuals, such as those listed above, and their respective organizations that continue to lead the way in standards innovation on the Web. It is a largely thankless job, which is why we would like to extend our deepest appreciation and admiration for an excellent job on RDFa and all that those involved with the W3C continue to do for the World Wide Web and its citizens.
